It’s always cool to see your work highlighted 😍 Thanks @argonne
An international team, including researchers from Argonne, has found new experimental data that clarifies how some of the heaviest elements in the universe are formed in stars. This discovery begins to answer fundamental questions about our origins - https://t.co/1iYNxI2CQC

Did you know that an artificial neural network is designed to mimic the brain? Inspired by biological neurons in the brain, artificial neural networks are large collections of “neurons”, or nodes, connected by “synapses”, or weighted couplings, which are trained to perform

Only 5 women have ever won a Nobel Prize in physics. The field as a whole has issues with gender diversity, but as a woman physicist explains, success is possible for women in the field.

Physics - Lanthanum Less Abundant Than Previously Thought
physics.aps.org
Measurements related to the production of lanthanum in stars where elements are thought to form via the “i process” indicate that less of the element is produced than models predict.

How a disgruntled scientist looking to prove his food wasn't fresh discovered radioactive tracers and won a Nobel Prize 80 years ago https://t.co/VXNAEQj8w9 via @ConversationUS
theconversation.com
Some Nobel Prize-winning ideas originate in strange places, but still go on to revolutionize the scientific field. George de Hevesy’s research on radioactive tracers is one such example.
